  “The woman serving was friendly , which is the only positive here. Went in there because of a voucher I was given through my phone contract which clearly listed that restaurant as part of it, she seemed unsure about it, which, fair enough it happens, but then spent 20 entire minutes preparing a single burrito with me being the only person in the restaurant. Then -after she'd cooked it-, she had to apparently phone up the owner/manager to see if the voucher was legit, so I waited another 10 minutes while they chatted, she sent him a photo of the voucher (handling my phone with the same gloves she just cooked the chicken with), waited for him to call back, and then ended up saying they'd never heard of that offer before. My brother in Christ you must have been the one to sign up for the scheme! So I left 30 minutes later without a burrito and having wasted an online voucher I could have used somewhere else, though to be honest looking at some of these other reviews I might have dodged a bullet by not eating the food.”

  “What a terrible experience! A young lad had obviously been left on his own with insufficient training in the menu or hygiene. He kept having to call someone on his mobile to ask how to make burritos, and went from operating the till, to handling his phone (multiple times), to reaching his hand into the very pink meat, to reaching into the vegetarian items without ever changing his gloves. The meat was undercooked which made the whole thing taste bad. It took what seemed like 10 minutes for him to make one burrito, only then did he turn to the second person in our party to take their order. We asked for a refund, but that took so long and we had to provide bank details that only one of us got refunded - we couldn't stand to wait any longer, so we paid for a burrito that was inedible and was left behind. Whoever runs this place should be reprehended for allowing such an inadequately trained staff member to handle food, and for leaving him on his own.”

  “Came across this wonderful hidden gem in the city centre of Edinburgh. The quesadilla was by far the best I’ve ever had. Being a picky eater I get nervous with my food groups. They also made me feel welcome with a friendly environment that makes you feel at home. They allowed little Rookie to have some chicken which he couldn’t get enough of it!”

  “The reviews look fake because there's only one review per account. The worst burrito I've ever had. The ground meat doesn't even taste like mince and has no taste at all. The burritos are small and I wasn't even full afterwards. It's like you're eating tasteless rice porridge. I was disappointed because, based on the reviews, I expected a delicious burrito”

  “I recently stumbled upon a hidden gem in Edinburgh (turbo burrito) – a burrito place that completely exceeded my expectations! I made my own African-style burrito, and it was genuinely one of the best burritos I've ever had. The flavours were incredible, and it's definitely the best burrito I've had in Edinburgh. The owner was also nice enough to give me a free drink as well. The place had a great vibe, the prices were reasonable, and the portions were huge. If you're looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, this is the place, going back to have another one tonight.”

  “Amazing service with the most friendly and generous owner. Food was soo delicious. Perfect mix of Nigerian food with Caribbean and Mexican influences. The vegan burrito tasted amazing paired with plantain, and was super moist and flavorful. puff puff was also incredibly delicious. Food came out very fast and the vibe of the restaurant was great. 10/10 recommend for both a light snack or full meal.”

  “I had a vegan burrito and my husband had the California burrito (has meat), and they were both amazing. I've been in Scotland almost ten years, and this was the best burrito I've had by far. Non standard flavours, served with a friendly smile and chat.”

  “The worst burrito I’ve ever had. They used baked beans instead of black beans, no sour cream or salad. Really small wrap…NOT a burrito! And the nachos were a joke. Dry mince on chewy nachos again really shy with guac and sour cream Avoid!”

  “Couldn’t rate the place low enough honestly, food was despicably bland and dry. If having flavour was a crime these people would be saints. Almost £50 and the whole lot went in the bin. Mystery meet was grey, so doubts on whether it was actually mince or not, was some how burnt in parts but cold in others? Never mind the portions being poor. Should have looked deeper than the 4.8 stars it has on here because that was never £50 worth of food in quality or portion size.”

  “Guy working there is very pleasant and friendly. Was welcoming and polite. However that's as good as it got. He said "We serve the best burritos is Edinburgh", which turned out to be absolute nonsense, I wouldn't describe what I got as a burrito. It was more so a burnt panini. The wrap that the food was wrapped in was put into a sandwich maker until it was literally burnt, my wife's one was the same. The food itself was mediocre and that's being generous. The decor and overall presentation of the place could do with some attention but I understand the man is trying to run a business and may not have the capital to renovate the business. But fold out plastic chairs and table was fairly poor in my opinion. I won't ever return to this establishment but I wish them all the best with it. I actually had a burrito in a burrito bar in the airport when flying home which was tenfolds better than what I was served in Turbo Burrito. So for the moment that is actually the best burritos in Edinburgh by comparison”
